This data set provides the main results from a remote sensing study of the Ross and Filchner-Ronne ice shelves in Antarctica (Moholdt et al. 2014, J. Geophys. Res.). The downloadable zip-file contains an archive of georeferenced rasters (GeoTIFF format) and polygons (shapefile format). The key param...
